Preparation
Step 1
Place all of the ingredients in a food processor or blender and add a generous pinch of salt; pulse for 10 seconds until evenly combined. If you prefer a smooth pesto, continue blitzing until smooth (if you’re using a blender, you may need a splash more olive oil). Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Step 2
If you’re not using the pesto straightaway, transfer to a clean jar and cover with a little extra olive oil, then seal and store in the fridge for up to 5 days.
Step 3
To serve with pasta, cook the pasta according to packet instructions, until al dente. Drain, reserving a mugful of cooking water and tip the cooked pasta back into the pan. Toss with the pesto (½ of this recipe will serve 4), loosening with a splash of the reserved cooking water. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
